My C5 Was a Drug Mule
So, I pulled my door panels off yesterday to fix them, because the clips were all broken at the bottom, and found some pretty interesting stuff!
The foam in both door panels was carved out in what looks to be the perfect size for a kilo of cocaine or some other drug. There was also left over duct tape on the sides from where they were taping it in place!
Now I am kind of curious what other little compartments there are hidden in my car.
I guess that explains why both door panels had broken clips and were loose!
I will post a pic. of the panel when I get a chance later tonight!
Anyone else found anything like that?

Remove the tailights and look inside the rear bumper area with a flashlight.....Oh just never mind.....take it to the police station and ask if their drug dog can do a sniff test! Of course explain your predicament. And be sure to youtube the search...could be very funny for us to see!

Screw taking it to the police, no profit in that. But I through search is in order and hopefully you can find a little mod money along the way

Thanks for the advice that is probably the best thing for me to do!
I actually work at a car lot, and we have a few lot porters (with some previous drug experience) that took a look at the holes. And they were pretty convinced that was what went in there.

No kidding, I would probably have it sniffed by LE dog. Better safe than sorry, who knows what "might" happen at a normal traffic stop.
If you do, take some vid and post it for us. Might be a real laugh once it is all over.

Where did you get the car from? Did you contact the dealer and ask the questions? Personally, I would be talking to the Police and asking questions.

If you don't have a criminal record, I would report it to the police ASAP. That way, it's on record, so if you ever do get stopped, you can point to that as evidence of trying to disclose it to bail yourself out.
